On March 8th, on the occasion of International Women’s Day, our students from 3ºC and 3ºD have learned English by watching the video of Malala Yousafzai's speech at the United Nations. Malala had been shot in the head by the Taliban in her native country of Pakistan because the Taliban don’t believe in girls getting an education. After watching the video, our students have reflected upon her main message, “Education First”, in which she advocates for “the right of education of every child”. Besides, they have shared their thoughts on a Padlet wall with regard to damaging gender stereotypes and the fight for equality, together with the difficulties some famous women or women from their own families have faced and how they have thrived despite adversity.
